 * Added `tf.contrib.signal`, a library for signal processing primitives.

 ## Breaking Changes to the API
 * `tf.RewriterConfig` was removed from the Python API after being available in 1.2 release candidates (it was never in an actual release). Graph rewriting is still available, just not as `tf.RewriterConfig`. Instead add an explicit import.
